For example, consider this route: ```ruby -get 'photos(/:id)', to: :display +get 'photos(/:id)', to: 'photos#display' ``` If an incoming request of `/photos/1` is processed by this route (because it hasn't matched any previous route in the file), then the result will be to invoke the `display` action of the `PhotosController`, and to make the final parameter `"1"` available as `params[:id]`. This route will also route the incoming request of `/photos` to `PhotosController#display`, since `:id` is an optional parameter, denoted by parentheses. @@ -852,6 +852,49 @@ You can specify unicode character routes directly.
